Week 180: Thanksgiving for Marriages
This week we are calling
on you to give thanks throughout the week for marriages that have played or are
still playing an important role in your life. That special set of
marriages will be unique for each of us, so we may not suggest some that are
important to you; nevertheless, here are some to consider just for starters.
Give thanks for the marriage of your parents, the marriage that most
often sets the example for our own marriages. Give thanks for the marriages
of your grandparents, those marriages that have remained strong and vibrant for
decades. Give thanks for the marriages of friends, for those who have
walked along side you and encouraged you through good and bad times. Give
thanks for the marriages of your spiritual mentors, your pastors, Bible study
teachers, youth leaders, all those who have exampled for you how to be a couple
faithful to the call of Christ. And don't forget to give thanks for your
own marriage and for the one who shares this unique and most wonderful
relationship with you.
We
wish you a happy Thanksgiving and promise we will lift you up this week,
thanking God for all those who share in this ministry of prayer with us.
